lP fl shows a door eons-ructed entirelyoi'E steel. in `which the. railsand their 1n0ldings and also the panels may be inegral, ille siilesbeing Connected heletuln 1he same manner as the other construction, theterminal sides ofthe stiles, however, instead of being Vintersectinglyconnected to combine the same/and form a portion of a sash as.in-Fig. 3,are combined with the ysteelpanels by the cotter pins 33, as shown maybe made in the construction herein shown and` described withoutdeparting from the spirit of the inventlon or sacrifieing any of itsadvantages.

what I claim as my4 invention is:

1. In a metallic door, stiles having their sides extended in Contractedparallel relation toward a plane between, the lstiles, grooves formedlengthwise in said stiles, unitary panel and rail lnembers in said planebetween the Stiles, the panel portions of said unitary members engagingthe extended parallel parts of the stiles, and `the rail parts vof saidmembersv engaging the grooves of the stilles, and pins engaging saidextended parts to combine the same.

2. In a metallic door, stiles having their sides extended in contracted.parallel relation toward a plane between the stiles, grooves l formedlengthwise in the stiles, unitary panel and rail members in said planebetween the Stiles, the panel portion of said unitary members fittingslidably between said extended parts and the rail porlions of saidunitary members fitting slidably into said grooves, pins'engagingsaidextended parts and the panel portions of the unitary members to combinethe same, and a molding fitting within said grooves :Eid engaging tht`ends of said extended parts.

3. ln a metallic door, Stiles having grooves formed lengthwise on theinner edge of the stile, parts of said Stiles being extended incontracted parallel relation to the sides thereof, a unit-ary rail andpanel member in a plane between the Stiles, the panel portion of saidunitary members fitting slidably between said extended contracted parts,and the rail portion engaging the grooves of the stile, and a sash por-Ation formed on the stiles above said unitary member by the transverseintersection of the extended parts of the Stiles.

In testimony whereof, I, the said JOHN Osexn Emden, have hereunto set myhand.-
